When there are so many reasons to despair of this world, a few things give us reason to hold onto hope. The resiliance of people enduring monstrous oppression, the kindness of strangers, the beauty in art and music, connections with the natural world, and the gentle encouragement found in friendship and community.
I can’t say if we’re gaining or losing ground. What I do know is our Theme Camp can afford to match what we spend on ourselves with donations to Medicins Sans Frontieres who are making a hands on difference where it matters. It’s a small contribution in the face of a huge challenge, but no less important for that.
